The Beagle Has Landed!

Greetings from HMS Beagle!

Latest news

Eager Beagles and new shows...

We've had great fun with Beagle over the past year. We've taken it to some fab venues, and being able to perform at this year's Shrewsbury Darwin Festival in February was one of the highlights.

It's been five years since Beagle debuted. In the intervening years the show has - of course - evolved. Or at least mutated. Either way, we were so chuffed to get such a warm response from the Festival audience.

But: we're not done with Beagle yet!

Origin Day: 24 November 2009

On 24 November 2009, it was the 150th Anniversary of Charles Darwin publishing Origin of Species - or, its full original title On The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life.

So we created some Darwin iPhone and PC wallpaper that you might like. If you like it, let us know. If you get a tattoo of it, let us know and we'll give you a free ticket for every show we ever do from now on. Seriously. Do it.

Previous shows

For the past seven years, The Missing, Inc. have been creating comedy for stage and radio. Here are some of our previous shows.


arts

The hastily (and contentiously) titled Up The Arts! was commissioned and written especially for a regional Arts Festival. (And they still asked us back the next year.)


Love, Lust & Last Rites

A loosely-themed concoction of sketches and songs that introduced some of The Missing, Inc.’s longest running characters - Carol Decker, Home Wrecker, The Hovis Singers and a stuffed dog.


Never Mind The Baubles

The customary end-of-year rehash of the highlights of the last years’ The Missing Inc. shows.

An opportunity for audiences to see the best bits they may have missed, or an excuse to skive off writing new material for a month? Possibly both.


stop

Burn your newspapers!

Kick in your television!

Disembowel your radio!

You won’t be needing them anymore.

Let The Missing, Inc. guide you through the past month’s news with their usual brash comedy, songs and audience participation.

With a new one-hour show every month, 31 Days described Stop The Press... as “a chance to see really fresh comedy”.

The Missing, Inc.’s very first show debuted to surprisingly large audiences in 2002.
